 Hey, no im not going to say your too young, in fact the opposite. You are 18 which makes you an adult, so in fact you are old enough to make your own decisions including who you date. If your parents know that you are already dating this guy then chances are they may not of accepted it completely but are allowing it. Probably ignorant to the fact that you love him.
If they have no idea, then maby if you talk to them about it you may be suprised by their reaction. I would say that you should respect your parents and dont go against their religious beliefs, however in this case that includes verbal abuse i say stuff them and do what you want. I mean you already want to run away, so if you can run away and never see your parents again or for a long time then why cant you move in with your boyfriend. Your parents may not want to speak to you but they wudent anyway if you ran away.
Now, i am not encouraging you to run away as this is a bad idea, especially for your younger sister. Maby seek a professional in child abuse for your sister, im not really sure of telephone numbers for these in your country so maby internet research could help you with that.
Discuss your situation with your boyfriend when it comes to your relationship and come to a solution together. Maby move in together and when you are finacially stable, your sister can move in with you.
Good luck x

 There's no need to run away from home. Just stay away from them and ignore them, then soon enough they'll realize what they've done. And if not just don't listen, easy as that, never listen to what they say, make it go "in one ear, and out the other." And you are not too younge to be in love, who cares if your parents dont accept the fact, if your in love do what's best for you n him. Tell me how it goes...
